Punta Cana
Monkeyland is the closest Punta Cana gets to a wildlife encounter that feels personal, and I compared every way to visit. Squirrel monkeys hop straight onto your shoulders at the sanctuary in the Anamuya hills. Plenty of tours bundle it with ziplines, since both share the same foothills.
Experience close encounters with friendly squirrel monkeys, learn about Dominican culture, and taste organic local products on this half-day safari tour.
